A Novel Battle.

We learn from an observer that a
bull was wading along in the edge OF
the Flint river swamp last Monday,
nipping cane and keeping cool, when
huge alligator made dash at his
nose, but missed hold. The bull
made fight and prodded the alligator
with his horns. Then commenced a
fierce and bloody encounter in the
shallow water. The gator slapped
him his tail and snapped furiously
with its huge jaws, tearing the skin
and flesh in big strips from the bull.
The bull got his horns into the
gators sides and lifting his huge car
cass tossed him high and dry on the
ground, and following up with deep
below, rushed again upon his foe.
The alligator met him with terrible
blow of the tail, knocking off one horn
and bringing the bull to his knees.
The other horn got under fore leg Of
the gator, and the gator getting a
front foot of the bull in its mouth,
they became locked, and rolled and
tumbled fearfully. They got into the
water again, where after brief strug-
gle both expired. The entrails of the
gator were protruding in several
places, while the bull was nearly
stripped of hide and tiesh.-tSumter

AMUSEMENTS.
tsThe Rag Baby'' Tonight at the
Opera House.

Tonight the Grand Opera House
will be crowded by those who are
lovers of mirth. The Rag Baby has
gained a reputation throughout the
country which has reached Los Ange-
les, and the advance sales indicate
full houses all this week.
The following shows how it was re-
ceived in Chicago: Judging from
the size and disposition of the audi
ence at the Grand Opera House,
Hoyt's Rag Baby in new dress pos
sesses all its former popularity and
gains q new interest with the new
people enlisted in its performance.
1t is a merry-go-round in which
each and every parsonage (most
of the cast contain trio
of characters) have a chance of dis
playing some special accomplishment.
Mark Sullivan and Helen Remier,
who will he favorably remembered as
associated with the play last season,
are as entertaining as in times past.
7. J. Cronin made success in quar-
tet of characters consigned to his
charge, and Miss Edith tennessee,
Miss Fannie Johnston and Miss Mamie
Hornby contributed their share Of
prettiness and sprightliness to the en-
tertainment.
Miss George Parker made'a pleas,

of cork for new field of comedy, is to
be credited with a most pleasing sue

and original, and the difficulty in sue
ceeding popular predecessor is diff
ficnlt and delicate task that deserves
commendation. Mr.. Reed is an "Old
Sport of the Peter Campana type,
genial but wirey, jocular, earnest and
enthusiastic.
Mr.. Reeds topical song was the best
of the evening, winning many recalls.

The Germans and the Dutch.

To be in Holland and note the man
ners and habits of the people gives a
good idea of the difference between
the Germans and the Dutch, and the
difference is most marked. The Ger
man is quick in movement and con-
ception. The Dutchman will not
hurry though you build fire under
him. He reasons slowly, but when
he reaches a conclusion he holds to it..
Looking at these Hollanders brings to
mind the fable OF the hare and the
tortoise. He is slow but sure. He
gets there. There do not seem to be
any poor people among these Dutch,
men. They all look comfortable and
contented, and many of them are aW-
fully "solid," so far rs this worlds
goods are concerned.-iCorr. Balti-

Pomona Correspondence.

POMONA, October, 8.
| EDITOR HERALD :-Yesterda was 9
day for Pomona when the "boom'
halted and the people took the time
to attend John Robinson's great men
| agerie and circus. There were two
very large audiences, in the afternoon
and evening. The menagerie consists
of 20 cages Of Robinson's finest ami.
mails, being selected especially for the
Pacific coast trip. The circus, how.
ever is drawing card, and it is but
pure justice to say that every act was
i good, and the horseback riding, bi
cycle riding and leaping act of the Ed.
dys well worth. the price of admission
John Lowlow, the clown and also the
the assistant manager is no "chest
nut" and we are sure will more thar
please the Los Angeles people as he
did the Pomonians. He's little
might on the "boom" but makes uT
for it by his pleasant illusions to the
ladies'. Lowlow is host of fun him
self. There was nothing discreditable
whatever about the entire show
and it deserves the healthy patronage
Los Angeles can extend.
The Hotel Palomares will soon be
enclosed, and it will be a fine orna
ment to Pomona. County seat people
will see Pomona ahead of Pasadena in
two years time. Mark the prediction
Rails and ties for the North Pomona

about completed.
COUNTY PoMOLoGICAL SOCIETY.
The County Pathological Society
met in Pomona last Thursday, being
very lightly attended. A report failed
to reach the HERALD promptly on ac-
count of your correspondence illness.
The evening meeting was postponed
owing to engagement of hall by st.
John, the Prohibitionist, who ad.
dressed large audience. The society
discussed various fruit topics,
s. w. Sallee also reading an
essay on immigration. 1t was
proposed to make up a deficiency ol
81 500 caused by the failure of the Po-
mological fair, held last month in Los
Angeles, by opening subscription lists
at every newspaper Office in the
county. Covina was selected as the
next meeting place.
Pomona property is selling in some
cases for cash nowadays. Two lots
and small house near the Palomares
Hotel realized $1,000 yesterday, and
could have been purchased for 81 800
four months ago.
The demand for mechanics and
building material is greater than ever.
Houses are being erected everywhere.
Herald readers will profit by COM
ing to Pomona and taking look at
things for themselves.
1t is reported that the Grant Bros.
have secured contract for grading

Fictitious names, of course have

of confidence in printing the letters,
especially as they are of a more or less
public nature and of general interest
to every taxpayer. Some of these

Enterprises of Which They are
the Head.

In every direction on the Pacific
coast may be found the traces Of the
enterprise Of the citizens Of Los An
geles. They are awake to every in
dustry. They are making salt on the
desert. They are gathering borax for
the world. They are interested in all
the mines of gold, silver, iron, copper
and coal. They have produced the
finest cattle in Arizona that were ever
seen in that territory, and now have
conquered the "Sage brush State" as
appears by the Nevada STATE Journal,
OF September 30th, which says ::
"The Vail Brothers again have
another magnificent lot of cattle on
exhibition that are attracting a great
deal of attention, consisting OF Short
horns, Galloways, Red Polled Nor
folks and half-breeds. At the head OF
their Shorthorns stands the famous
bull. Professor Mike, imported from
England and exhibited at all the
principal fairs in California. Their
COWS exhibited are all from the East
ern States, and near them stand bulls
and heifers from small calves up to
three-year-olds, all sons and daughters
of the head of the herd.
The hardness of these animals and
their ability to live through a hard
winter on short feed is SO we'll known
that they are considered the
best for the range. Black Knight
leads the herd and is 9

large. these cattle for milking quail
ties are grand, and in England con-
sidered the best"
The Vail Brothers, of Los Angeles,
anticipated the Southern Pacific rail-
road in Arizona, and when it was open
supplied Los Angeles with beef. They
have now captured Nevada and will
anticipate the new railroad from Los
Angeles to Salt Lake, which will
bring a new supply of beef to this
city.
